What's in a Monday?


The storms have passed for today, I think. Leaving a trail of destruction, the whipping winds knocked limbs and branches off trees and scattered things around the yard. I was lucky to finish filling the 50+ gallons of spring water and pulling in the driveway this afternoon just as it was starting. My son was here earlier and said it is supposed to rain the next 4 days. wowsa.

  • The world always feels so clean and fresh after the storms. I love that.
  • Fred the dog has a new home. (See my other blog, akannie@wordpress) Yippee. Spread the love!
  • Tomorrow I am lunching with my baby sister and then hitting a potluck for supper. WooHoo!! No cooking all day!!!!
  • I am having a time with something, and a drink hasn't even entered my mind.
  • I have been weepy all day, and the tears feel cleansing.
  • I'm glad I know that This too Shall Pass.
  • I'm grateful to have friends I can lean on sometimes.
  • I'm blessed to be a pretty healthy old girl.
  • Other people are living life on life's terms, and showing me how it's done.
  • I'm obsessing over a follower on this blog who has removed their name. Can't figure out who it is...or why. lol
  • I have NEVER been good at MYOB.
  • My sister is coming in a couple of weeks. I haven't seen her in a while.
  • I have a niece who is drinking like crazy, and I want to hit her upside the head.
  • I haven't done it.
  • But I want to.
  • I read about a wonderful place near where I used to live in California. I want to go there.
  • Just for today, I'm not running away.
  • Just for today, it isn't necessary for me to drink away my problems.
  • I'm especially blessed....and I need to remember that.

Namaste.
